Looking for help. I have tried two different flasher switches and wired in as per diagrams. I think that it has been instaled correctly. When I removed it ,I took multiple photos. They still do not work without the relay getting extremely hot. I have read that there is differences in wire color connection in relation to numbers on the switich based on year.My car is a '75. Does anybody have pics or diagrams of the proper wire connections? Thank You!
When I move my steering columb from side to side the horn goes off. The horn button works fine it's just when you move the wheel from side to side without pressing the center button, the horn goes off. Head scratcher. Thanks for any help |

Thanks for any help I am no help on the flashers (have you tried sacrificing a chicken?) However... A loose bushing on the column will cause the horn issue. I had that problem last fall. In my case the little cheater sleeve that goes between the bearing and the column had slid up and just needed to be pushed back down. You can see this by removing the steering wheel and just look down the column. Attached image(s)
